1969 Ford F100 Ranger Short Bed 390gt Toploader 4-spd Disc Br Custom Bucket Int on 2040-cars
Union, West Virginia, United States
|
1969 Ford F100 Ranger, swb, 2wd. 1966 390GT engine rebuilt with <2000 miles: Holley 750, Edelbrock Performer intake, completely rebuilt C6AE-R 14-bolt GT heads (new valves, seats, guides, springs, retainers, surfaced), .040" overbore flat top pistons, Erson cam (can't remember the cam specs), HV oil pump, electronic distributor with MSD ignition. Runs great and is quick. Power steering, power disc brakes with brand new rotors, calipers, pads, flex lines, shocks (front). Slightly lower than stock. 3.25:1 gears in 9-inch rear. Toploader 4-speed trans from a car. Dual 3-inch exhaust from the original GT cast manifolds back, with flowmaster 40-series mufflers. It's like a built Mustang or Fairlane but in a pickup. It's just a little lopey at idle, and sounds great. The interior is an older custom job with Ford bucket seats (original type). See photos. The interior is in excellent condition. The tires are in ok condition but are older. 275/60R15, front rims are 8" wide and the rear are 10" wide, to make the track look better. I have stock rims and hubcaps included. It really could use a good detailing.... The paint is from the late 80's and is faded and tired. The body is good however. I've owned this truck since 1991 and it's never been driven in winter or salt. See additional photos: http://s1288.photobucket.com/user/Fomoco390/library/

Ford, Samsung shack up to bring regen braking to non-hybrid models [w/video]
Mon, 09 Jun 2014Ford must be desperate to get itself ready for the beach this summer because it is really trying to get into shape. Shortly after unveiling the Lightweight Concept that cut the weight of a Fusion down to that of a Fiesta, it's now the rest of the line's turn for improvement. The company is wrapping up a 10-year research project aimed at developing next-gen automotive batteries to improve efficiency.
Ford claims that 70 percent of its lineup will have stop/start tech by 2017. The key to this massive proliferation is its new dual-battery system that combines a lithium-ion battery with a lead-acid one and regenerative braking. The setup works by harvesting braking energy and converting it to electricity. When the vehicle stops, the engine shuts off, but the Li-ion battery has enough juice to keep the accessories running. The engine starts up again as drivers take their foot off the brake. The layout would mean less wasted gas while idling. It's already available on Ford hybrids and is somewhat similar to the i-Eloop capacitor-based system from Mazda.
The bigger challenge is tuning the regenerative braking right. While hybrid drivers may be a little more adventurous, when it comes to getting a hang of regen braking, conventional buyers might not be so open-minded. The systems have a tendency to be a little grabby at first and then taper off at very low speeds. Ford needs to make sure it's just right to avoid turning off buyers.
Project Ugly Horse: Part VII
Fri, 12 Apr 2013Devils, Details and Weight Reduction
There are many things I could call this exercise. A party is not one of them.
I've spent three days crammed in the axle well of this 1989 Mustang with nothing to keep me company beyond a trouble light, a DeWalt drill on the very last of its legs and billion razor sharp, red hot slivers of metal with an affinity for my most sensitive of regions. My joints are raw from crawling around on the concrete. I'm half deaf from the shriek of the spot weld cutter and the boom of the cold chisel and hammer.
Ford will build Hackmobile out of Transit Connect Wagon
Fri, 27 Dec 2013What you see in the above image is a rendering of the Hackmobile Transit Connect Wagon. What is that? It's a "mobile fabrication and hacking unit" that includes tools for metal- and woodworking, 3D and electronics fabrication, a three-axis CNC machine called "The Fabber," a video projector and screen, an air compressor, an 84x48-inch work surface that folds out like a Murphy bed and oh so much more. When not in use, all of the implements fold neatly into the back of Ford's award-winning van.
But perhaps the more important question is why is that? Because Make Magazine held an Ultimate Maker Vehicle Challenge in conjunction with Ford in which ten teams created were charged with creating "the ultimate Ford Transit Connect Wagon for the do-it-yourself enthusiast." Team Twin Cities Maker won the competition with the Hackmobile, and in addition to winning $10,000, Ford has declared it's actually going to build the thing - which is great, because if they can actually engineer a road-legal Hackmobile Transit Connect Wagon as envisioned, the inevitable A-Team movie reboot might need to think about including it.
Check out the video below for a cheeky walk-through of the Hackmobile, and get all the particulars in the press release below that.
